Ionia Sentinel Standard, 16 Aug 1965

Mrs. Edith L. McGannon, wife of Charles W. McGannon of 550 East Main, died
suddenly of a heart attack at 8:50 p.m. Saturday evening at her home.   Mr. and
Mrs. McGannon had returned to Ionia from California last Tuesday after visiting
their daughter for two months.  She had not felt well since returning.

A native of Elmore, Ohio, now part of Toledo, Mrs. McGannon was a graduate of
the University of Michigan, Cum Laude.  She came to Ionia to teach and was an
instructor of Latin for two years.  Mr. and Mrs. McGannon lived much of their
married life in Detroit where Mr. McGannon was in business.  After they became
residents of Detroit, Mrs. McGannon taught in Northern high school for four
years.  Mr. and Mrs. McGannon purchased and remodeled their present home about
10 years ago.  Mr. McGannon commuted to his Detroit business until his
retirement four years ago.

She was a 50 – year member of the Detroit Women’s City club and an active member
of the Ionia Art Guild.  She was an artist and student, and an avid reader.

Surviving besides Mr. McGannon are a daughter, Mrs. Patricia Graves Pino of Los
Angeles, Calif.; a granddaughter, Mrs. Linda Lee Holm of Malibu, Calif., who
lived with Mr. and Mrs. McGannon in Ionia through grade and high school; and
three grandsons; and a sister, Mrs. George A. Keith of San Bernardino, Calif.

Arrangements are being made in Ionia by Boynton funeral home.  Services will be
at Forest Lawn cemetery in Glendale, Calif., near her mother, brother and two
grandsons at a later date.  Mr. McGannon will fly to California with the casket
Tuesday morning.

A memorial for the Ionia Art Guild is being established.
